every 2-4 years for periods
ranging from 2-40 weeks.

Future:
Officer training will be constant
throughout their careers but in

same or less due to the
employment of Distance

will encompass a "Lifelong

*r
* TADLP allows soldiers to attend MOSQ
courses within 50 miles of their home
station thus eliminating the primary
reason for RC "no-shows": having to
leave home for extended periods.
* Most of the courses being redesigned
for DL under the TADLP program are
MOSQ courses for Skill Level 1,3 & 4!
* Provides easy access to much needed
training seats for RC soldiers.
* 1 standard for courseware (AC/RC)!

that would

training product development.
• ATRRS is baseline document for selecting courses for
redesign to DL.
• MACOMs, NGB, & USAR nominate courses for redesign to DL
by lOCT annually. (ADRS & MTSA have first priority)
•TPIO assembles consolidated course lists from MACOM
nominations.
•TPIO assembles MACOM and proponent school information
and establishes a priority alignment (1-N list).
•TPIO finalizes 1-N list, forwards it to appropriate training
proponents for action, MACOMs, & posts it on DCST web

• Assessment targeted factors limiting student participation in the
course to include RC policies, incentives, conflicting
responsibilities, and attrition factors.
*"Both students and unit leaders responses were generally
positive and described the course as an improvement over the
previous paper-based correspondence course.
•Issues raised:
*Awarding of retirement points for successful completion of
each phase of training.
•Develop policy for states to compensate students for time
spent in synchronous training.
•Restructure specific course material to separate long lessons
into several shorter lessons.
•Provide asynchronous study material on CD ROM as an
alternative to online coursework and downloads.
•Students reported nearly 100% of course time was spent
interacting with peers and instructor.

Armor Captains Career Course DL (AC3-DL):
Study conducted by ARI at Armor School compared students in
AC3-DL to students in legacy "Armor Officer Advanced Course-
RC" (correspondence course). 83% of students rated all phases
of the course "High" or "Very High". 90% of student
complaints have already been fixed.
Battle Staff NCO Course (BSNCOC)-DL:
Study conducted by ARI at the Sergeant's Major Academy
compared students in BSNCOC-DL to students in legacy
"BSNCOC" (resident course). End of course test scores were
comparable. Each group performs equally well according to
on-the-job" supervisory ratings 6 to 16 months after training.
a
CAS 3 :
CGSC will sponsor a TRAC study of CAS 3 which begins OCT 01 &
